Multiple points in the POCUS process can go awry. I can help you to support your client. I have personally performed and also reviewed over 5, 000 POCUS exams in the last six years to identify many critical medical conditions including myocardial infarction, thoracic and abdominal aortic dissection, pulmonary embolism, and septic shock. I have used POCUS to prevent procedure-related complications. My significant experience in emergency medicine POCUS will benefit you and your client. My other qualifications include being a Cook County residency-trained, board-...
